Romance and warmth, make people laugh, make people cry and laugh.
The movie shows a boy's cognition of his father in an exaggerated way: the father is the greatest person, the father is nothing, and the father is the one who loves me the most.
The same story, just with different listeners or narrators, seems to understand much more than before, not all lies, or just slightly exaggerated facts.
My father has been telling stories all his life, his own stories, and those fantasy and romantic stories are strung together is this movie, the combination of reality and fantasy, with that magical pace, you will soon forget the storyteller. Soon after, you heard what your son heard before, and you gradually got to know what kind of person your father was. Sometimes back to reality, and slowly some facts and some evidence seem to indicate that those stories really happened.
The son gradually understands the father, and romance is not to say to the father, I love you, I'm sorry. When the father had a stroke and could not speak, the son took his father's hand and helped the father to finish the last part of his story - "escape". In the illusory chase, in the gratified and haggard face of the father and the cross-cutting of the camera, all misunderstandings have been released, and the story has ended in warmth and joy.
There are dreams, choices, and pursuits in the story. Although life can't be so fantastic, at least it won't be so bland. Facing life romantically, let your story be full of love.
